How disappointed..........

Have you heard about Yuki Abe??

He's already left for England.

I simply can't believe the news......

(→http://in.reuters.com/article/idINIndia-51046820100825)

I know, of course, he had wanted to join a foreign (especially European) football team, and this was the last chance to take action.

But......

I love Yuki Abe the best of all the present Urawa Reds players.

He is a versatile player and equally good at attack and defense.

He has made many adroit passes that leads his team to victory.

And at the same time, I feel sorry for him that he played in the discordant atmosphere.

I miss Yuki Abe, but I always support you.

Enjoy football at Leicester!!

Tongue Twister

Schools are out for summer vacation now.

On the other hand, Eigonoie's summer break had already finished, and students and teachers have worked as usual since August 10th.

So it's arduous for us to maintain or to improve the students' motivation.

.

But the elementary school students fail to live up to my negative expectations.

They seem to devote all the energies to the practice of tongue twister.

iPod trouble

Noooooooooo!!!!

My iPod has been broken!!



My father presented it to me when I was a freshman, so I had used it for more than 4 years.

I always take much care of using iPod, but.............



What is this icon......!!??

This is a "sad iPod icon".

If the icon appears, there is something wrong with its hardware.


Undoubtedly it needs to be repair.




How disappointed... (´^｀)

The icon looks so sad, but my heart is much sadder.........

Drinking with my friends

I had a drinking party in Shinjuku.

Some of my friends are back to their hometown in Kanto because they have no work during Obon holidays.

This is the first time to meet them after our graduation, but all they're what they used to be in their college days.

Anyway, drinking is still hard for me......(×д×;)

Mont St-Michel

Bonjour.

It's quite hot and humid today.

Anyway, one of my friend (actually she is a 7 or 8 year-older ex-coworker though) went to France last week.

And she sent me a photo.

Do you know this place?

This is "Mont Saint-Michel".

"Mont Saint-Michel" is a rocky tidal island and a commune in Normandy.

It's located approximately one kilometer off the country's north coast and linked to the mainland by a causeway.

It is crowned by a medieval Benedictine abbey-fortress.

The Mont Saint-Michel and its bay were added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1979.

The marvel of the western world.... (´∀｀）

Kushari

My parents have gone to Yamagata to see football match Montedio Yamagata v.s. Jubilo Iwata.

So today I had to make supper for my brother and myself.



Then I decided to make "Kushari"!!



..........You don't know "Kushari"!?




"Kushari" is a popular traditional Egyptian dish.

It consists of a base of rice, brown lentils, chickpeas, macaroni, and a topping of Egyptian garlic and vinegar and spicy tomato sauce (salsa).



At the last night of my stay in Egypt on March, all the boys went out and bought "Kushari" for supper.

It was so cheep and the taste was not so good but not so bad.

But we really enjoyed chatting over a bowl of Kushari at that time.


Therefore, Kushari is a piece of my good memories. (^∪^)




Well, how about making it at home?

This silhouette must be......

Light up!!!

.

.

.

.

Min-Min-Zemi!!!!

.

.

This is the first one I see this year.

.

.

.

.

.

The scientific name of min-min-zemi is "Oncotympana maculaticolis", or the common name is 'robust cicada'.

.

But of course the foreign people don't know this name, so it's hard to explain this Japanese insect.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Anyway, he will not fly away at all.

What can I do for the night visitor? (^o^;)
